For this layout I used some beautiful laces, flowers, and rhinestone trim from the Tresors de Luxe Etsy shop.

These are some of the other products I used:

Riddersholm Design paper- Vintage Venture - Skies

Riddersholm Design paper- Vintage Venture - Yesterday

Wycinanka chipboard - Blueberry Swirls Big Frame with Lattice

Wycinanka chipboard - Fullness of Summer 7

Martha Stewart punch - Wild Flowers

Spellbinders die -Captivating Squares

Along the inside of the punched area I spread a thick layer of tacky glue and sprinkled Stampendous Taupe Color Fragments, small white beads and micro beads in white, turquoise and bronze overtop. After the glue was dry I applied a couple of coats of Krylon Low Odor Clear Matte spray to help keep the beads from falling off too easily.

For this layout I used paper by Riddersholm Design from their Vintage Venture collection.

These are some of the other products I used:

Spellbinders die - Large Deckled Rectangles

Spellbinders die - Small Deckled Rectangles

Spellbinders die - Large Deckled Mega Rectangles

Spellbinders die - Romantic Rectangles

Spellbinders die - Small Deckled Mega Rectangles

Spellbinders die - Marvelous Squares

Memory Box die - Quinn Flourish

Martha Stewart PATP punch - Quilted

Here is the layout after I had placed the diecuts and most of the lace.

I sprayed some of the lace with pink and turquoise mists. It turned out much too bright so I washed the lace under the tap to get as much of the colour out as possible. When it was dry I sprayed it lightly with Walnut Gold Glimmer Mist to dull down the colour some more.

The frame around the photo was made with wired thread. To make the loose ringlets I put the narrow handle of a small paintbrush along the straight wires, wrapped wire around both the paintbrush and straight wires then pulled out the paintbrush handle.
